OUTDOOR FROST PROTECTION PRODUCTS It must be ensured that the product is frost resistant. Tiles belonging to group BI, (porcelain tiles) are recommended. In any case consult the technical characteristics in our catalogue. Prior to laying the product, the wall or floor must be perfectly levelled, either with levelling paste or mortar, forming the necessary slopes (2%) to prevent water stagnation. In terraces or uncovered areas, waterproofing and drainage connected to a drain under the floor screed is recommended. A special adhesive cement for exteriors must be used and always place the pieces with a joint of more than 5 mm, always use special grout for exteriors, covering the joint and prevent water from filtering through the joint. Expansion joints must be made all around the perimeter, every 6-9 m2 and respect the structural expansion joints. Always use a notched trowel in the application of the cement adhesive, the tiles should be hammered with a rubber hammer. No voids should be left under the surface of the piece, that is to say, it must be totally solidified.
